Cannelle by Matt Knio

I work around the corner and had not been to Cannelle so stopped in today for a quick bite at lunch. Had the Deluxe Breakfast Sandwich... Wow... incredible taste and very fresh.... I can't wait to come back and try a pastry or one of the desserts. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. I highly recommend making a stop here. Great atmosphere, especially on a beautiful day in the D. (Dine outside). I can't wait to stop in again.

Grabbed some sweets to eat outside - the pastry selection made for a very difficult decision. Not only whether to choose savory or sweet, but then which one! I had a bite of the peach pastry which was excellent - and then scarfed down the pistachio raspberry macaroon which came highly recommended, and with good reason. One star off my food rating because the chai latte I ordered had a funny taste to it - maybe a hint of coffee, I couldn’t put my finger on it.

Stopped in late in the day. I got a raspberry macron that was fantastic! Also bought a chocolate croissant and a cherry croissant. It was all so amazing! Friendly, helpful service. Very clean. Highly recommend!

The baked goods here are really good. First tried their stuff at Eastern Market. The cafe downtown is a nice place to sit and people watch. Large selection of goodies makes it difficult to choose. Friendly service and lively atmosphere makes this a great destination. We literally cross rivers/bridges/borders to get here 🇨🇦

Nice atmosphere and decor, nice French music playing. Outlets for sitting. Many many options for tarts, eclaires, cake slices, and other desserts. Savory breakfast and lunch too. I'd come for a snack and a light meal, not if I'm really hungry. Pastries a bit on the sweet side. Croissants are the heavier kind, not the light buttery crispy I prefer. Overall very good.

$10–20

Magnificent if extra rich croissants (stuffed ones are very heavy with butter and fillings), sandwiches, and cakes. Mini baguette sandwiches were also top notch.

I had the olive and goat cheese croissant and the fig tart, and when I tell you I agonized over this choice and wished I had several stomachs to eat everything, I mean it. There were no bad choices, it was just a preference of what you wanted to taste. Interior is a little small with probably about 10 tables total, with a two small counters for bar seating, but if the weather is nice they have a nice outdoor dining space.

clean and cozy. Pastries look and taste amazing. I had an espresso, chocolate coconut bite, chocolate croissant, and a Frasier… all so delicious. Also, sign says no public bathroom but they do allow patrons to use.

$20–30
